Givenchy recalls men’s silk T-shirts

The garments fail to meet the federal flammability standard

Givenchy of New York, N.Y., is recalling about 60 Givenchy men’s silk T-shirts.

The garments fail to meet the federal flammability standard for wearing apparel and pose a risk of burn injury to consumers.

No incidents or injuries have been reported.

This recall involves three styles of Givenchy-branded 100% silk T-shirts for men. The short-sleeve T-shirts are sheer and were sold in blue and black plaid, black and white stripes and black with an image of Jesus on the cross. They were sold in sizes XXS through L.

The style number 16J7127135, 16J6218886 or 16J7205877 is printed on a tag sewn into the side seam.

The T-shirts, manufactured in the U.S. and Portugal, were sold at Barneys New York, Givenchy Boutiques, Maxfield and Forward, Neiman Marcus and Nordstrom stores nationwide from February 2016, through March 2016, for between $685 and $1,350.

What to do

Consumers should immediately stop using the recalled T-shirts and return them to the place of purchase for a full refund. Givenchy is directly contacting consumers who bought the recalled T-shirts.

Consumers may contact Givenchy collect at 646-453-4700 from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. (ET) Monday through Friday or email cust.service@us.givenchy.com.
